Making Request from Database - Laravel & PHP

Question

I am making a request from my database in function but then I get an error trying to get property of non-object. But nothing is wrong with my code for it to return the error

>>trying to get property of non-object.

Controller

 public function shopHook(Request $request)
    {
        $shop = $request->getContent();
        $shop = json_decode($shop, true);
        $shop_id = $shop['number'];
        $get_msg = ShopCancelled::where('name',Auth::user()->domain)->first();
    }

Web Route

Route::post('shop-cancel-webhook', 'AppController@shopHook');

Why could this be happening? The code seems to be breaking at

$get_msg = ShopCancelled::where('name',Auth::user()->domain)->first();

When making the request

Seems like Auth::user() is null. Is the authentication working properly? — Phiter

check if the error happens when you access domain: Auth::user()->domain — Hussein

try replacing Auth::user()->domain with some dummy string to see if error goes away. — Manpreet

If you are requesting it in API, auth session is not properly set. If I'm right, first of all you need to look up about api auth — tokkerbaz

@Phiter, okay so Auth::user() is null and when i hardcoded the domain in replace, it worked. But why is it null ? — Michael Anaman

I think the problem is in this line:

$shop_id = $shop['number'];

try instead $shop_id = $shop->number;

If you have red the comments above, its all about auth. Auth::user() is returning null =))

That error is because you are trying to access to a property inside an object that has not been instantiated or doesn't have that property. Would be helpful if you can point out exactly the line where the error is presented.
